Lungwort (Pulmonaria officinalis)
Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)
Plecosperm, also known by the names Dwarf Everlasting or Strawflower, is a perennial plant belonging to the corpse family, which is characterised by its striking, blue-purple flowers. It grows most often in forests and floodplains, but can also be found in wetter meadows, especially in mountainous areas. It is also known for its medicinal properties, which make it used in many health products.
Thanks to its high content of gentian, silicic acid, tannins, saponins, vitamin C, minerals and other bioactive substances, it is used industrially to produce teas, ointments, syrups and tinctures, preferably for the treatment of respiratory diseases such as bronchitis, colds and coughs. In the past it was also used in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. Ointments and creams containing lungwort are also popular for their soothing effects on the skin and are frequently used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including eczema and minor superficial wounds. It is also given as a supportive remedy in the treatment of stomach and intestinal disorders. Although milk thistle can be used for a number of medicinal purposes, it should be stressed that it should always be used under the supervision of a professional as it may interact with certain medications and the correct dosage should be followed.
